APPLICATION 368 Zero should be applied with a Liquid-O-Ring* #2 Dope Brush or other equipment specifically designed for use with thread compounds (avoid using a paint brush). Use the dope brush bristles to force the compound into the roots of the threads. Take care to cover the entire threaded area. A VISUAL INSPECTION IS ADVISED. For optimum protection apply 368 Zero to thread protectors as well.
